Fights Break Sphere: The Fire Rekindles

Chapter 78 Yin Fire Alchemy
"Teacher, are you sure that the medicine made with Yin Fire is poison?" Xiao Yan looked at the two pills in his hand, which not only looked exactly the same but also smelled the same, and immediately questioned it again.

"Haha, if even you can see it at a glance, will people eat it?" Yao Lao rolled his eyes and said disdainfully.

"The pills refined with Yin Fire not only look the same, but also taste the same. However, one can help people increase their lifespan, while the other can shorten their lifespan. The one refined with Yin Fire should be considered a life-reducing pill. After taking it, you will feel very energetic and look a lot younger, but this is at the cost of your own life. As soon as the effect of the medicine wears off, you will become even older. If you don't believe it, you can try one?" After Yao Lao introduced the differences between the pills, he looked at Xiao Yan jokingly.

"Life-reducing pill! Could it be that the medicinal properties of pills made with Yin Fire are completely opposite?" Xiao Yan looked at the pills made with Yin Fire in surprise.

"That's not the case! Yang fire will add some good medicinal effects to the elixir, while Yin fire will add unexpected toxicity to the elixir, so Yin fire is more suitable for refining poison." Yao Lao explained.

"If teacher hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have known that Yin Fire can also be used to make pills." Xiao Yan said with a smile.

"Using poison is not the right way. Some alchemists have gone astray and embarked on the evil path. Don't learn from them! Otherwise, I will clean up the mess." Yao Lao warned seriously.

"I won't use poison unless it's a matter of life and death. Besides, I don't like using despicable means. I'm more accustomed to fighting openly." Xiao Yan responded.

"Yeah!" Yao Lao nodded. He understood Xiao Yan's personality. If Xiao Yan was to refine some strange poisons to play tricks on people, he would believe it. But if he was to say that Xiao Yan would become a poison master, he would not believe it.

"If you dare to use drugs to harm me, I will use poison pills to harm you." After Xiao Yan put this pill away separately, he continued to refine another one with Yin Fire, put them in the same bottle, and then began to refine the remaining pills with normal strange fire.

The next morning, Xiao Yan looked at the last pill that was almost formed in the medicine cauldron with some fatigue, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's finally almost finished refining. It's not easy!" Xiao Yan said with emotion.

The third-grade pills were completely different from the second-grade and first-grade ones. Not only was the difficulty of refining increased exponentially, but the refining time also increased several times. With Xiao Yan possessing the strange fire, it took more than ten hours to make sixteen pills.

Of course, this is only the case if Xiao Yan did not fail once. If each pill failed once or twice, it would take at least two or three days.

Alchemists who don't have the strange fire need to spend longer, at least ten times more time, which means more than ten days to refine the sixteen pills, which is an average of one pill per day.

No wonder it is almost impossible to measure the price of elixirs of the third grade and above with money. A senior alchemist like Fa Ma Gu He spends several days to refine an elixir. If you ask me to buy it with money, it is obviously an insult to them!

Xiao Yan slapped the medicine cauldron, and the pills in the cauldron flew out instantly. After catching the pills, he put the last pill into the jade bottle.

After extinguishing the flame in the medicine cauldron and putting the cauldron into the storage ring, Xiao Yan put Fa Ma's original medicine cauldron back to its original place.

After everything was restored, Xiao Yan took out a power-storage pill from the storage ring and put it into his mouth to restore his physical strength and spirit.

After his physical strength was almost recovered, Xiao Yan began to pack the medicinal herbs that Fa Ma gave him. It was not that Xiao Yan was too greedy.

Because this is the path that must be taken to advance to a high-level alchemist, with the help of these medicinal herbs, Xiao Yan can quickly advance to a fourth-grade alchemist, and even touch the threshold of a fifth-grade alchemist.

Once Xiao Yan becomes a fifth-grade alchemist, his status will rise sharply, directly equivalent to a Douhuang strongman. At that time, no matter which force wants to deal with him or the Xiao family, they will weigh it carefully to see whether it is worth it.

After Xiao Yan collected all the medicinal herbs in the secret room, he walked directly to the exit of the secret room, pressed the mechanism on the wall, and then waited quietly for Fa Ma to arrive.

Sure enough, not long after, Fa Ma appeared in front of Xiao Yan.

"Are you leaving?" Fa Ma looked at the well-dressed Xiao Yan in front of him and asked with some doubt. "Yes! I have finished the things I came to the capital to do, and the elixir is ready. It's time to continue my training." Xiao Yan said with a smile.

"Ah! All the pills are refined? How could it be so fast? How many have you refined?" Fa Ma looked at Xiao Yan in shock. He originally thought that with Xiao Yan's speed, it would take at least three or four days to refine them. Unexpectedly, they were all refined in one day.

"There are a total of fifteen longevity pills. This jade bottle with two pills is made for the royal family, the one with three pills is for the Nalan family, and the other four are for the Mitel family and the Mu family. As for the last six, they are for you, Pharaoh." Xiao Yan took out four small jade bottles from the storage ring and handed them to Fa Ma.

"You refined fifteen pills in one day? How did you do it? This is not a first or second grade pill! Even if I were to refine it myself, it would take at least two or three days!" Fa Ma widened his eyes and looked at Xiao Yan in disbelief.

Originally, Fa Ma thought that Xiao Yan would refine ten pills at most, but he didn't expect that he could refine six pills for him, a total of fifteen pills. Why did the pills become mass-produced once they were in Xiao Yan's hands?

"Haha, maybe I'm lucky and my success rate is relatively high!" Xiao Yan scratched his head and said with a smile.

"You! Forget it! This is your ability, and I don't want to ask more." Fa Ma shook his head helplessly.

"Where can we enter the Monster Mountain Range from here?" Xiao Yan asked.

"Are you in such a hurry? Why don't you stay a few more days?" Fa Ma was a little reluctant.

“No! I have been resting in the imperial capital for quite some time. If I don’t go out to gain experience, my strength will probably decline. If my teacher comes back and finds that my strength has not improved much, I will get a beating.” Xiao Yan said with a smile.

"With your current strength, teacher, are you still not satisfied?" Fa Ma said speechlessly.

"There's nothing I can do. A strict teacher will produce a good student, right? If the teacher isn't strict enough, wouldn't my talent be wasted in vain?" Xiao Yan said as a matter of course.

"That's true! In that case, I can't try to keep you here. These are the things prepared for you, please accept them!" Fa Ma nodded, and then handed the two storage rings to Xiao Yan.

"What is this?" Xiao Yan looked at the storage ring in Fa Ma's hand with some confusion.

"Take it! One of them is for you, and the other is to honor your teacher! When you meet your teacher, just give it to him." Fa Ma said.

"Okay then! I'll accept it. When the teacher comes to find me, I'll pass it to him on your behalf." Xiao Yan put the ring away and said to Fa Ma.

"Come with me! It's not safe to go out. I don't know how many spies from big families are waiting outside, waiting for you to show up!" Fa Ma waved to Xiao Yan, motioning him to follow.

Xiao Yan followed Fa Ma all the way, and after many twists and turns, he finally arrived at a secret passage. It was pitch black inside and he could not see anything.

Fa Ma pointed at the tunnel and said, "Go through this secret passage and you will enter the Monster Mountain Range. Once you enter the Monster Mountain Range, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack for those people to find you. And I will wait for a few days before handing the elixir to them. By then you should have gone far away."

"Goodbye then! Pharaoh!" After saying that, Xiao Yan took out two moonstones from the ring and placed them in his hands, then walked carefully into the secret passage.

"The 7th Alchemist Conference will be held in two years. I look forward to your performance then." Fa Ma waved his hand and said with a smile.

"Okay! I will definitely participate when I have time!" Xiao Yan's voice came from the secret passage.
